My Precious

Take me to any Jewelry or Accessories store, take a walk around and come back. You will find me glued in the Rings section, nose to glass counter, wide-eyed and maybe even drooling!

Yes, I am an addict. I have a Ring Addiction, its growing and leaving me powerless. Cocktail Rings are my weakness, my Heroin and I can never have enough, so Greedy, I know !

When I look at those delicious, shiny things in different sizes and styles calling to my spindly fingers, I truly understand that scene in Tropic Thunder where Jack Black’s character sees that huge pile of Heroin and goes mental!

I have a small collection of cocktail rings with an equal balance of strong statement pieces and quiet subtle pieces. The thing I love about them is that they can instantly glamorize any outfit without me having to think too hard. Don’t have the right bracelet for an outfit? Just slip on a ring or two.

Here are some of from my Freaky Animal Collection. I can’t seem to buy any ‘normal’ animal rings (supposedly butterflies, dragonflies, ponies, owls and some other girly gobshite) I always end up picking the creepy and odd animal ones. Why? Oddball, remember?

Bottow row- animal rings

       I also see fit to invest in subtle and demure rings that don’t over-accessorize a look.

The simper ones.

My Grade 4 Heroin.

From left to right : YSL Arty ring, Stone and Rhinestone ring missselfridge.com, YSL enamel Lapis ring,

Lovely aren’t they? The YSL, John Hardy and Vivienne Westwood  (armour style) rings literally drive me into a tizzy. Alas! Someday I shall buy them and strut about unnecessarily flailing my hands around.

So let me know what you think about Rings and your favourites as well as what accessory makes you Greedy.

   Exploding High-Five !
